ai-parrot-embeddings

Concrete backend implementations for the AI-Parrot retrieval stack: embedding models, vector stores, and rerankers.

What's in this package

This satellite contributes modules to three subsystems of the parrot.* namespace:

  • parrot.embeddings.{google, huggingface, openai} — embedding backends
  • parrot.stores.{postgres, pgvector, milvus, arango, bigquery, faiss_store} — vector stores
  • parrot.rerankers.{local, llm} — rerankers

The abstract base classes (EmbeddingModel, AbstractStore, AbstractReranker), the registries (EmbeddingRegistry), the dispatch maps (supported_embeddings, supported_stores), and all shared types (parrot.stores.models.Document, SearchResult, etc.) remain in the ai-parrot core package.

Import contract

This package uses PEP 420 implicit namespace packages. Its modules ship directly under the existing parrot.* namespace — no separate top-level. Existing imports continue to work unchanged once installed:

from parrot.embeddings.huggingface import SentenceTransformerModel  # from satellite
from parrot.stores.pgvector import PgVectorStore                    # from satellite
from parrot.embeddings import EmbeddingRegistry                     # from core
from parrot.stores import AbstractStore, supported_stores           # from core

No code changes are needed in user projects after upgrading from ai-parrot[embeddings] to ai-parrot-embeddings[...].

Development

git clone https://github.com/phenobarbital/ai-parrot
cd ai-parrot
source .venv/bin/activate
uv pip install -e packages/ai-parrot -e packages/ai-parrot-embeddings
uv run pytest packages/ai-parrot-embeddings/tests/

Or for the full workspace (if no pre-existing dependency conflicts):

uv sync --all-packages

Architecture

This package uses PEP 420 implicit namespace packages (not the parrot_<name>.* + sys.meta_path redirector pattern used by ai-parrot-tools, -loaders, -pipelines). The satellite ships no __init__.py files at parrot/, parrot/embeddings/, parrot/stores/, or parrot/rerankers/. Python's import machinery merges the satellite's directory entries with the host's regular packages at import time, because the host's sub-package __init__.py files call pkgutil.extend_path.
